Jackie Robinson made it. I appreciate your quality over quantity perspective and love the analogy to cooking, building a recipe. Rushing always ruins the dish for me. A quality meal from a thoughtful chef? It’s a rare and delicious experience.

Your writing quality and thought value of argument shows in its thesis, grammar, and clarity. You own the doubts right at the moment a critical reader would have them — because you are one and take the craft of writing seriously as a structured artist.

My backlog and unpublished articles have always been a longer list than what put out. It really helps to know other writers have the same struggle and have found peace and process to justify a quality article over a flood of marketing-strategic posts. Both are valid approaches and I admire those who can consistently produce and manage the risk of cynicism and reactive, illogical pieces.

I often enjoy the freedom of a response. There’s less expectation and the author has already done the hard work. To be respected in this kind of dedicated reply is an honor. Thank you, Kitanya.
